The draft is paramount to a team&#039;s success in the NFL. It was the most important tool to the 2014 NFL champion SeattleSeahawks and just about every championship team before them.

2012 was a big disappointment for the Detroit Lions and their fans, but the future is bright. The Lions troubles last season can be attributed to a few things, namely the absence of Jahvid Best, injuries, lack of depth on defense and a poor showing from the defensive line, which was supposed to be t2013-07-01 09:35:096/13: SideLion Report- Detroit Lions Minicamp: Darius Slay Making An Impacthttp://sidelionreport.com/2013/06/13/detroit-lions-minicamp-darius-slay-making-an-impact/
Darius Slay was a potential first round pick after clocking a 4.36 forty time at the combine, until questions arose about his knee.

An October concussion ended Amari Spievey&#8216;s season when he was placed on injured reserve.

Iâll be the first to admit that I was one of those that questioned nearly every selection the Lions made during the 2012 NFL Draft.
